today I learned: wikipedia had to ban IPs from the US congress to stop them from changing each other’s entries. also, actress olivia hussey wasn’t allowed to attend the premiere of zeffirelli’s “romeo and juliet” because she was under 18 and the movie contained a nude scene…in which her own breasts were shown. hahaha. next, gloves were introduced into boxing not for safety reasons, but to increase hits to the head and dramatic knockouts. finally, houston airport received a ton of complaints about baggage wait times, so, in response, they moved the baggage claim further away so the walk was longer than the wait. the number of complaints successfully dropped. nice.
